Description:
------------
The thumbnail of a SONY picture can not be loaded with exif_thumbnail function.
PHP Warning:  exif_thumbnail(image.jpg): IFD data too short: 0x000C offset 0x000C
IFD0.Make : SONY
IFD0.Model : DSC-W55
EXIF.MakerNote (not seen) : SONY DSC

But, by changing the Exif:make tag value from SONY to Sony, or to SYNO, or even almost whatever else, the thumbnail is loaded.

Switching from "SONY" to "Sony" value for Exif:make tag changes the way PHP see the Exif sections.

This topic from exiftool.org forum gives details about struggle around this problem.

Could you please make the image file available somewhere else for
download?

Thanks for sending the image by mail!

I can confirm the reported behavior, but I cannot see why that
would be a bug.  The PHP warning for the unmodified image
correlates to exiftool's:

  Warning                         : Bad MakerNotes directory

I understand PHP is not supposed to solve problems potentially dropped by image editors. This picture seems cropped before I had received it.

Previous PHP version did succeed in retrieving thumbnailImage from Exif. Can we call that a regression ?

On my webserver, with the warning comes the modification of file rights to apache:apache (owner:group). I suspect httpd more than PHP, or maybe a secure layer behaviour.

Anyway, the workaround is easy.

Indeed.  I had solely focused on exif_read_data(), but ignored
that extracting the thumbnail fails.
